Miraculous Journey of Prophet Muhammad (s)

Isra and Miraj: Al - Isra and Al- Miraj (The night journey and Ascension) is the most miraculous incident in the life of prophet Muhammad (s) which remains to be unp aralleled in the history. In a time when technology was not known and space journey is non-imaginative, Prophet Muhammad (s) travelled from Makkah to Al-Aqsa Mosque (Jerusalem) and from there to spaces, galaxies, seven skies and far beyond the reach of so called modern technologies, within a very short period of a night. Prophet Muhammad (s) experienced both physical and spiritual journey in which he metmany prophets of olden ages likeEesa (Jesus) and Moosa (Moses)and He stood imam for prayer in Al-Asqa Mosque. The Muslim world celebrates Rajab 27 and fall in worships of zikr and fasting with due respects and remembrance of this miraculous journey. This journey was very decisive stage in the history of Prophet Muhammad (s) as there were many people who embraced Islam. Prophet's companion like Abu-Bakr Siddique (r) became most truthful believer after this incident as even while disb elievers started mocking at Muslims saying about the journey, Abu-Bakr (r)and other companions, with no further seeks, extremely believed and it helped them increase their Ee-man (belief)in Islam. On Mi-raj night, the messenger ofAllah as carried from the sacred mosque of in Makkah to the sacred mosque Al-Aqsa in Jerusalem on a special creature (a vehicle) called Al-Buraq. In this scared journey Jibreel (Gabriel) was accompanying Prophet Muhammad (s). On the way, near to Zam Zam will in Makkah, Prophet Muhammad a(s) was subjected to a surgery that was to enlighten His hearts so as to prepare him to meet Allah Prophet Muhammad (s) was subjected for four sacred surgeries in his life, none of themwas to cure any disease or for purifying him frim any sins, but instead, all these surgeries were done to enlighten His hearts for revelation. Prophet Muhammad (s) was extremely infallible and Allah has purified him from doing any sins. (islamxplored willshortly post articles regarding prophet's surgeries and his infallibility). "Glorified (and Exalted) be He (Allah) who took His slave for a journey by night from A l-Masjid-al -Haram to the farthest mosque, the neighbourhood where of We have blessed, in order that We might show him of our Ayat Verily, He is the All-Hearer, the All-seer" (17:1)
